This is my honest opinion of the Man Utd Squad (key players).
V D Sar - Solid Goal keeper who doesn't make many mistakes.
Evra - One of the hardest working players in the game, and the distance he travels proves this. Not a stand out but is good for the big game.
Vidic + Ferdinand together - good back two. They are missing that synchonisity that made there early days together awesome.
Carrick - Best holding mid fielder in England. Always seems to have time on the ball and should be partnering Gerrard in center midfield for england.
Valencia - and i thought Ronaldo was fast on the ball, this guy is the fastest player i have seen. He creates chance after chance. He is not ronaldo though, he won't score as many goals or worry the opposition as much but he has filled the void nicely!
and Rooney - I always said i would pick Rooney over Ronaldo, just for the hard work he puts in. He craves the ball and you can see it sickens him to let his team down. The fact that he can put one in the back of net too is sugar and cream. The only down point is his proned to miss the easy goal.
The current squad, has talent, has a good work ethic on the field but doesn't have that X-Factor that a Ronaldo or Van Nistelrooy could provide. In saying that though Scholes, Carrick and Valencia have a nice habit of scoring goals at the right time.
You look at the youngsters Isz and you see they are replacements,
Anderson for Scholes, Nani for Gigs, Rafael for Neville etc. Whether they are as good as the old crop, we will have to wait and see.
